California loving

09-02-2010

I {Heart} California.  I always have.  We finished off our summer with a two week adventure in California where we visited great friends, ate great food, and basked in the beautiful California sunshine.  Here are a few of my favorite things things I loved about our trip:

Finally meeting the beautiful children of old friends and falling in love


Manhandling by Homer Simpson

My kids mustering the courage to go on a thrill ride
Playing arcade games at the Santa Monica Pier

Petting farm animals at the Sonoma County Fair

The kids playing “dead-man” in the trampoline in their pajamas before bedtime

How time at playground always rights their ship

Giving the kids disposable cameras (and now anxiously awaiting to see what their world looks like)

The cement slides in San Francisco

I love California.  I love (and miss) all our friends who live there, the easy-going laid back attitude, the beautiful sunshine, the amazing food and wine… I love it all.

I love to watch kids with a free spirit bound through life.  And I am even luckier when I get to photograph them

Beach week 2010

08-19-2010

I love my girlfriends. They are my sounding board, my rock, inspiration, never ending support, unconditional love, and most of all family.

Every couple of years we all gather for a week at the beach with all our kids.  Four moms and seven kids in one house.  It is  a ton of work, utterly exhausting, an absolute  blast, and a reminder how lucky I am to have such amazing wonderful women in my life and that I get to watch their equally incredible, interesting and beautiful children grow up.

Miss A

07-02-2010

A few weekends back my industrious neighbor Miss “A” wanted to help the Washington Animal Rescue League (WARL) raise some money.  They were in need of a new roof and had just sent a mass email to their supporters for help.  It just so happened that my neighbors have adopted several animals from the WARL, chief among them was their beloved dog Sasha.  Sasha was a bit of a miracle dog on our block.  She was blind, survived cancer and had diabetes yet defeated every one of her grim diagnoses and lived to the rip old age of 13. So the WARL holds a special place in their hearts.

So when the WARL sent out a call for funds “A” decided to host a charity car wash to help. She  charged $10 a car and .$50 for lemonade and popsicles.  After three days car washes over two weekends, 7 volunteers (not including her parents), a box of freeze pops from Costco, and countless glasses of lemonade she raised a total $684.00.  Not bad considering her volunteers would down two glasses of lemonade and eat two Popsicle for every car they washed;-)
